Do you know someone who spends endless hours volunteering his or her time to help others in need, someone who puts in more hours to volunteer than in a full-time careers, someone who promotes wellness in your community or works with youth organizations such as the Girl Scouts or the Big Buddies program? Perhaps you have a retired relative who still volunteers or you know a student who dedicates an incredible amount of time outside of schoolwork to help an organization. If you do, then your job is to dedicate an hour of your time to fill out a nomination application to recognize that unique person for the Spirit of New Hampshire awards.
Nominations are accepted year-round. The deadline for this year's nominations is Sept. 15.
A group of reviewers will choose the final recipients and later acknowledge them at the Spirit of New Hampshire Awards Gala, which will be held Nov. 10 at the Grappone Conference Center. It is simple to take some time to recognize the people who truly exemplify volunteerism and dedicate so much to the state.
